“A Fair Shake” is a motto of Knoxville’s leading suffragist, Lizzie Crozier French. Illustrated with dozens of photographs, the book includes short bios of her and her several allies, as well as descriptions of landmarks strongly associated with suffrage, many of them long gone, but some still there. The 100-page book’s principal author is our partner Laura Still, who has been telling many of these stories for a couple of years now, through the “Misbehaving Women” option of her Knoxville Walking Tours. The new book also includes a book-ready version of Jack Neely’s tale of “Anderson, Harris, and Wade,” Knoxville’s own three legislators whose suffrage votes in 1920 counted as much as the suddenly famous Harry Burn’s did.
